How close are we to that 50% mark? I am clueless about how most people spend their grocery dollars. I also probably have more money than the average person, so the increases I’ve seen do not “break the bank” so to speak, for me personally.

I also live alone, so never have discussions with others, about buying this or that, or trading off buying certain items due to price comparisons, etc.

I’ve been buying a little extra each time I shop. Panic buying will be in our future, in my opinion.

Just getting started. But, at least only one trip needed from car to kitchen for a $100.00 worth of groceries now. Lemons, lemonade. 😊🙌

During the Great Depression folks pretty much behaved, and adjusted as best they could. That won’t happen with today’s pampered and entitled generation.

I’m actually surprised that we haven’t seen many instances of mass food shoplifting yet. But that’s sure to come.

All this misery will be worth it to achieve the liberal new world order.

I suspect that smash and grab raids on supermarkets will begin soon. Supermarkets aren’t equipped to handle looting. If they were smart, they’d put a emergency door lock button at each register station so that looters can’t exit the store.

My father died nearly sixty years ago and I must be much stronger than he ever was. He could never have carried $100 worth of groceries in one arm.

The morons who riot are the very same ones who vote for such destruction of the economy. When times get tough we find out what people are made of inside. It’s already being revealed. Many deserve their pain.

I imagine the EBT people are discovering even their generous allowances won’t let them buy the items they were used to getting now. I’m waiting for the rising chorus of complaints that welfare and WIC dollars are being stretched mighty thin and that their might even be shortages of things WIC would buy. Sure to hit at election time.

I just got back from the grocery store. I was shocked, SHOCKED! to see how high some of the prices were now as compared to just two months ago.

another thing that is happening is lookouts will single to folks in a car, who will block in a customer who has carts full of meat products and other things- and steal the contents by force in the parking lots- women in areas where crime is high, should not shop alone if they can help it-

I live in kentucky. Nothing’s changed. The grocery stores are like they were years ago.

The union negotiated a contract that ensures workers have the right to defend themselves if a customer attacks them.

Last year, the FBI said, more than half of active shooter attacks — in which an individual with a gun is killing or trying to kill people in a busy area — occurred in places of commerce, including stores.

... said she had recently noticed that regular customers were walking out the door without paying for items. “It’s like a disease,” she said. 'When there are no consequences, some people think: Why should I pay if others are not?'

Matthew Fernandez, 49, who works at a King Soopers in Broomfield, Colorado, said he was stunned when he watched a thief walk out with a cart full of makeup, laundry detergent and meat and drive off in a Mercedes-Benz SUV.

This increase in retail theft and violence is raising retailer costs which they in turn pass on to paying consumers. Thus, this is only adding to the price inflation we are already experiencing.
